Despite this, Green said he was undeterred, telling reporters on Wednesday "we’re not going to make this a one-off" and "there's also a set of articles that I have not presented that I will be presenting. This is not the last time."
Asked whether he believes pursuing impeachment is productive given the Republican House majority, Green answered, "it is always a good time to impeach."
"I think focusing on impeachment is productive whenever there's a breach of the Constitution," he said. "The timing is not associated with when you have a majority in the House, it's not associated with when it feels good, it is always good to impeach when a president violates the Constitution. It really is that simple."

When reached for comment by Fox News Digital, the office of Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., referred to his comments on the censure on X, formerly Twitter, this week.
Johnson posted, "Rep. Al Green’s shameful and egregious behavior during President Trump’s Joint Address disgraced the institution of Congress and the constituents he serves. Despite my repeated warnings, he refused to cease his antics and I was forced to remove him from the chamber. He deliberately violated House rules, and an expeditious vote of censure is an appropriate remedy. Any Democrat who is concerned about regaining the trust and respect of the American people should join House Republicans in this effort."
